exploded, he shot one shot up in the air and that's when everyone was like, get down, get down. >> at first, was there a sense that maybe this is a prank? this couldn't possibly be real? >> um, yeah, even after it all happened, everyone i was with said we all thought it was a part of the movie. >> did the gunman say anything? could you hear him talking? >> no. he didn't say anything at all. he was so calm about it. >> all right, people were being shot all around you as we know, how close a call was it for you, taylor? >> very close. i personally didn't look back. i just was afraid to. i was focused on getting out of there. there was a period of time where he stopped and by the time i got up, he started shooting again, so i got back down. >> did you get any sleep last night? >> no, not really. >> as a survivor, the experts are saying the grieving process, the coping process is going to take some time. who do you have around you? friends and family coming out and supporting you?

officers out of the theaters are not in uniform. they are wearing street clothes to blend in with audiences. in wake of the shooting in colorado, amc theaters announced it will no longer allow patrons to wear over the top costumes or masks. they cover their faces. regal cinemas say it will implement a similar rule, but hasn't released the details yet. they released a statement saying we are profoundly saddened by the tragedy. the safety of our guests are always our number one priority. and christian bail released a statement about the tragedy. words cannot express the horror that i feel. i cannot begin to truly understand the pain and grief of the victims and their loved ones, but my heart goes out to them. president obama and mitt romney put aside the usual campaign rhetoric out of respect for the victims. both campaigns pulled their attack ads from colorado television stations. they kept their scheduled appearances, but made them low

key and didn't talk about politics. >> your time here is limited and it's precious. what matters in the end are not the small and trivial things, which so often consume our lives, it's how we choose to treat one another and love one another. >> i stand before you today not as a man running for office, but as a father and grandfather, a husband, and american. >> house speaker, john boehner said congress joined with the president in paying respects to the victims and their families. our coverage of the deadly shooting in colorado continues on myfoxdc.com. as new information comes in, we will update you. you can find everything on our home page on myfoxdc.com. >> a break from colorado now as we turn our eyes to the skies at least it wasn't super hot today, but a wet and muggy start to the weekend. >> that was the silver lining, right? >> it felt cold, gary

mcgrady. >> it was nasty. just nasty. you know, this cold air, we don't generally get it in july, but it kind of locked in today with these northeasterly winds. ushering in a marine layer, if you will, that kept us cloudy. we did have rain. i want to show you, we get a radar and this goes back 12 hours. not a lot of rain today. when the rain finally moved out with these northeasterly winds coming in, bringing in all the low level moisture, it was trapped with warmer air aloft. it sat there and we ended up getting nasty, drizzly, overcast, not much rain. we would love to have more rain. it's going to be cloudy like this, bring some rain. people really can use it. not just this dank drizzle that we've had all day long. here are the clouds. just going back in time here, a few hours to show you the clouds have been locked in place. now listen, overnight tonight, we're going to continue with

the clouds and drizzle. for tomorrow, big question is, will the clouds break and will we get some sunshine and warm up a little bit? not too much, we don't want to get too hot, but we want to get this nastiness out of here. full forecast is coming up. >> we have had enough heat. >> yeah. >> now you are complaining about the cold. there's always something with this one over here. still to come, we are monitoring metro for you. we're going to tell you everything you need to know about weekend delays. plus, pesky parking problems. are you willing to pay an arm and a leg to get to work on time? >> and new details in the air force sex scandal as the first of 12 instructors learned his fate. that and more when the news at 10:00 continues this saturday night. 

fox 5 monitoring metro tonight. a head's up if your weekend

plans include taking metro. weekend track work will mean delays on every line except the yellow line. the medical center will be closed. shuttle buses will run between friendship heights and trains will be single tracking on some spots on the green, blue, and orange lines. you can find all the details on myfoxdc.com. it is a constant battle for metro riders, they get to the station and look for parking spots, but the garage is full. >> we don't know this, right? >> very well we do. >> why are entire levels still empty instead of being sold for a premium? sherry lee investigates tonight. >> first traffic. >> still have heavy delays. >> as commuters toil in traffic to get to work every morning, thousands of metro riders fight another kind of commuter congestion. >> it's a nightmare. it's a nightmare. it always fills up. >> i have been late to work several times because i couldn't find parking. >> at the busiest metro

garages, drivers carve out a spot wherever they can, squeezing into corners and parking illegally. it is 8:30 in the morning and people are circling the parking garage looking for a spot. the roof here is the last resort. but all of these spots are full. it is even earlier at some stations, according to metro, the parking lot filled up at east falls church by 7:45 a.m. at largo town center by 8:15, and vienna and shady grove, all the spots are gone by 8:30. an hour later, and you can still find a parking spot here except these will require a reserve permit. and that will cost you. for an extra $65 a month, that's on top of the roughly $85 in daily parking fees each month. anyone can get a reserved parking permit. for those that have one, it's sometimes the only way to get to work. >> i am pretty happy,

actually. >> metro has them right where they want me. i have no options. >> last year, sales reserved permits, earned metro $2.3 million. >> it is a money making scheme. >> the idea of paying for premium parking rounds up people as much as hot lanes where those that can afford the steep price can drive in special lanes without the congestion. >> i don't like those rules, but i also don't like the fact that we have the mercedes-benz lanes for hot lanes. >> often reserve spaces never fill up. metro's numbers show 2/3 of them more than 8,000 reserved permits have not been sold. broken down by station, shady grove have more than 600 unused permits. that is 12 and 13 percent of all spaces in the garage empty and off limits during peek commute hours. at green belt, 419 remain available or 12% of the lot. new carolton and huntington

have more than 300 each, making up 10 and more than 11% of the total. all totaled more than 5,000 spaces go wasted. enough to fill the entire shady grove parking garage. >> some places are over utilized. over 110%. some places are under utilized, depending upon the region. we try to make that balance. we are not building anymore parking structures. >> after 10:00 a.m., anyone can park in the reserve spaces. any time before that, and you risk a ticket. >> shortly after 9:00 a.m., we found this metro transit police officer writing tickets. the cost $50. this year, i pay for one ticket for parking. i knew i was going to get a ticket anyway, but hey, i need to get to where i need to get to. >> metro is reevaluating its reserved parking spaces. in some lots, some spaces could be open to the public or the price lower to $45 or $50 to encourage more users. >> i think there's about ten

stations that we are analyzing now that will probably have lower prices for those users. >> there's a balance between having enough parking for everyone, not just those who arrive early, but those who may need to come later. >> otherwise, the people that need to come after 8:30 have no option. it would be completely filled up. i guess i think it's okay. >> bottom line, there's not enough parking for everyone and likely never will be. sherry lee, fox 5 news. >> metro plans to make the changes to its reserve parking program in the fall. the agency says one reason the lots fill up so fast is most people are driving alone. people who can't find parking can always get the station by bus. still to come, a man hunt is underway for a murder suspect in prince georges county. >> plus, new hope in the disappearance of the two young girls in iowa. tonight, investigators believe the girls are still alive. we'll have the latest on that case as fox 5 news at 10:00

>> police say they have gotten more than 80 tips from a phone line they set up. they learned that james holmes received several deliveries over the last few months. they think that is how he was getting his ammunition. joining us live from aurora now is fox's craig boswell. good evening to you. we understand you are in front of james holmes apartment. set the scene for us. >> reporter: there's been a flurry of activity. we have been allowed to come down closer to the pardon me building where james holmes had lived. let me show you what's going on. evidence response teams from the fbi are on the scene. circled their wagons around the tent where they are processing some of that evidence. it can pan out to the broken windows that james holmes lived in. evidence technicians are working inside there, just a little less than 20 minutes ago. they brought out some computers, computer hardware, computer towers they put into another car and took that off. they are allowed to get in there now, because they have

taken away the hazardous materials. they have taken away the grenades. bomb squads have been working for 30 or 36 hours to dismantel booby traps that were designed for maximum deadly forced. encouraging news, also encouraging for the families that live in adjacent apartment complexes. this is a densely populate the area. they are allowed to return to these other apartment buildings. this will be shut down for some time to come. >> police have been very reluctant. do you know why and any idea if that might change? >> unlikely to change. they are being very maticulous. they will look at us and say if we knew, we wouldn't tell you. they are being very careful about this. they are building a case as the trip wires and the set up was inside of this apartment. >> where is he being held? i would imagine it's in

isolation, is it not? >> yeah, he's been held in isolation. in fact, some interviews with some other inmates that have been released saying he is acting erratically. those are things we heard about that. he will also be expected at his first hearing monday morning. >> i know this may be premature, but will he ever face trial? what sense are you getting about the prosecution at this point, if any at all? >> you know, probably getting ahead of a will the of the information there. monday morning we're not sure if they are going to be charges announced then. the prosecutors will have 72 hours. those types of things will be beginning to fall into place. we do know he has an attorney, several attorneys now that are well known for how they handle death penalty cases. that's an indication of how things are probably going to go as well. >> craig boswell, good work tonight, keep it up. >> okay. thank you. >> friday night shooting is

being categorized as one of the worst in the world. it is happening not far from the scene of the columbine high school shooting. that occurred back in 1999. erick harris and dillon opened fire at their school killing 12 classmates and a teacher and hurting 26 others before killing themselves. and more recently, the virginia tech shooting in april of 2007. gunman cho killed others before killing himself. he described what it's like every time he hears about another senseless shooting. let's roll back. >> now to give us perspective on what it's like to experience a mass shooting like last night's is a survivor from the virginia tech shooting, colin goddard, thank you so much for being with us tonight. for those of us who are removed from this type of violence, we think back to similar stories, columbine, virginia tech. for you, it's different. you've been through this.

what was your first reaction? >> dear god, not again, you know, it kills me. it bringses me right back to the day when i got shot, where my life was almost ended by a dangerous person who never should have had a gun in the first place. it's unbelievable to think about other families now having to go through what my family went through and a whole range of emotions that they will feel. but it turns to outrage when i hear people say, there's nothing you can do about it. crazy people will do crazy things. politicians say their nice words of sympathy and never do anything, that's when i get upset. >> i know you work for the brady campaign. first, i have to ask you this, because listening to the chaos and those 91 calls, it's just so hard to get your head around what was happening in those moments of terror. can you take us inside what was happening in those people's heads during those moments? what was happening inside that theater? >> probably shock and disbelief.

people are in there watching a movie and you know, never thinking that someone is going to be pointing a gun at them and firing bullets. i was in a french class and all of a sudden, i was in that situation. it's not something like you see in movies. it's not like we represent on tv or films. it's the most terrifying experience ever. and it is so easily come to be because we allow just about anyone to get their hands on military weapons and hardly do any checks on them. it's insane the indivisible we have in this country that allow these situations to happen and it's insane our politicians offer nothing more than words and sympathy. >> and colin, i want to get to that. you work on the brady campaign, which is to enact and enforce gun laws, regulations, and public policies. the suspect, james holmes, reportedly owned all of those guns legally. we're talking a will the of high powered, very high powered weaponly. does opening a large number of

those guns like he does raise any red flag, set off any alarms? >> i mean, i don't know why civilians need to own military weapons, need to have a drum that can shoot 100 rounds before you have to stop and reload. that's not for hunting. that's not for self-defense. that's for killing a lot of people. why do we sell things like that to the american public? it blows my mind. that's something we need to change. that's something the american people need to get behind. need to hold their elected leaders accountable for the decisions they make, for the lack of action they have on this issue and to cower two groups like the national rifle association who profit for more guns being sold to more people. we need the american people to be outraged and hold their leaders accountable. they need to visit the brady campaign and sign our petition, demanding they stop arming dangerous people. >> this has become your life's mission and i appreciate you being with us tonight and sharing your ideas about this.

colin goddard, thank you. >> thank you. >> certainly the shootings raising a will the of important questions. >> they are. >> coming up tonight, good news for pepco customers in maryland. a viesly in battle of the bills after the utility company was denied a rate increase. plus, the nats try to avoid a double header sweep at the hands of the braves. and a wild day for bryce harper. lindsey murphy has your sports report next. >> pretty wild day for weather if you ask me. what happened to the sunshine and temperatures up in the 90s? what we've had all summer long? it looks like they'll come back. the forecast is coming up next. stay with us.

she said this is not going well. >> it went well in the end. >> a lot was on the line. >> they are playing atlanta. atlanta is in second. so the nats can either widen their lead by winning a couple games or lose their lead. right now, they are losing it. they made up some ground. the nationals gave up a 9-run lead. so today was an opportunity to rebound. the nats and braves had a double header that began this afternoon. the nats entered with a 2 1/2 game lead over atlanta in the nl east. but this was not the start the nats had hoped for. bryce harper fouls the ball off his ankle. he would leave with a bruised ankle. edwin jackson pitched a gem. in the second, brian mccann would take him deep for a solo shot and that's the only run atlanta would need. jackson came out after 7. it was 1-0 braves. atlanta would beat up the nats bullpen again. henry rodriguez has control issues. that's his tenth of the season. the braves win game one, 4-0.

of course davey johnson not happy about back to back losses. so game two, look who is back on the hill. his first time since he was back and he pitched well. he got some help here from ian desmond. goes 7 strong innings, allows two runs and gets a standing o in his return. and the offense would make him a winner. tied at 2 in the bottom of the 7th. roger with a clutch two-out hit to right. chugging hard, he will beat the throw when the nats take their first lead of the day. so bryce harper came in this game. he reached on a pinch hit single, stole second, and he finishes what he started by flying around third and scoring on this base hit. the nats getting much needed win in game two, 5-2. bryce was limping at the end of that. he is not terribly hurt, but he has a bruise. so redskins training camp begins next week. in order for us in the media to get ready, the redskins pr department organized a media

football game. >> and you and dave ross did it? >> we tried. we have some video. let's go to the video. the season for this event, which pitted the tv media against the radio and the print. look at us taking control. look at me. i'm like blue 42. >> oh my gosh. look at you. >> so we had two 30 minute halfs. i got sacked on a slugger. so listen. dave getting rip around. we weren't the best players. we were dressed the best because we had the arm sleeves and the under armor stuff. made me choke on that. anyway, the tv beat the print and radio 20-18. >> representing on tv. >> nice. you are great out there. >> there were a couple injuries on the day. for instance, i had a fat lip earlier today because i ran face first and i bit my lip. we had another player, the guy kevin broke his finger.

he has to have surgery next week. >> you were playing rough. >> going all out. >> maybe next time they'll give us pads. we have a longer version of that coming up at 11:20. >> we'll see you then. you are tougher than you look. i'm sorry. don't say that out loud. let me move over this way. coming up on the news at 10:00, we may be safe in the rain, but much of the country is praying for wet weather. how drought conditions could affect your wallet. that's coming up next.

>> it is a no brainer, okay, they don't deserve to get a rate because they are not a reliable company. okay, they have to prove to their customers, okay, by the track record that they did deserve the kind of money. i'm not sure where the money is going to go. >> the commission says it did approve a small rate increase, which was required by law to provide safe and reliable service to customers. i was flying in to reagan national this morning and i think i punched right through that marine layer of clouds. >> what time was it? >> at 11:30. >> nice and sunny and you flew down through there and you were like, welcome home. >> i'm lost in the marine layer. wow. he's back. >> i do too, gary. >> you talk about the marine layer. when the wind turns to the northeast, you know, that wind brings in the moisture and it

gets trapped by warmer air aloft and there's a little inversion there and it kind of holds it in. and this is what we've had today. she needs to, so that she'll be able to whip out weather turns, bolter can whip out the weather terms. he is a junior meteorologist. listen, here's the way it's been today. we've had the showers moving through earlier today, not much. it amounted to a tenth of an inch, .2 if you got under one of the heavier showers. by this afternoon, we had the clouds in a lot of places stuck with drizzle. so it's been a dreary, nasty day. but it has been nice and cool. if we look back in time, on sental radar, no real rain here. a few showers further down to the south and there's just some hit or miss drizzle out there. the real rain, the thunderstorms in all the severe weather has been down to the south of us, out of the marine layer, if you will.

they have been warmer down here through southern sections of virginia and into north carolina. frontal system is right through here, so that's been kicking up a fuss with all those thunderstorms down there and then over towards the outer banks. and again, with all this stable air in place here, there's just no way we are going to get any thunderstorm activity. severe weather moved through raleigh, it is weakening to the communities and counties of north carolina. so, overnight tonight, here's the deal. i think we'll continue with drizzle out there in spots. we'll also potentially have fog in spots. and we are definitely going to remain cloudy all night long. drizzle will linger in spots through tomorrow. the clouds will linger as well and it looks like the sunshine should start breaking through as we start getting to 11:00, 12:00, 1:00, something like that. i think the clouds will hold firm until early in the afternoon. once that happens, we'll start to heat up a little bit.

heat will return next week. we're talking about 90s that come right back into the forecast and some humidity will return, too. we're talking about mid and upper 90s. look at these. this is crazy. dulles 68. bwi marshall, 69. northeasterly winds like that and no sunshine will do it every time. the winds are out of northeast, barely at 3 miles per hour. humidity is way up there. atmosphere is near saturation. that's why we will get fog forming in spots. a 70 here in town now. we'll drop more, gaithersburg down to 66. our western neighborhoods in the 60s. winchester right now, almost chilly with a temperature of 64 degrees. so, the clouds will stay put overnight tonight along with drizzle. along with a little bit of fog in spots. low in the city down to 67 degrees. morning clouds and drizzle. sun will start to breakthrough in the afternoon. high temperature tomorrow with

limited sunshine, about 83 degrees. some of you may stay in the 70s if you dent get a lot of sunshine. here's what we are talking about. we may see a few sunny breaks by noon. 74, and sunshine late in the day with high temperatures barely crawling up into the lower 80s. i don't think we'll warm up much more than that. there could be a spotty shower late in the day, but most of that would stay down to the south. hold on, because the temperatures go right back up. monday 91. tuesday 93. and then we settle into the 90s for the next several days. looks like a good likelihood of thunderstorms on monday, tuesday, it looks dry right now on wednesday and then a spotty thunderstorm coming in on thursday. so it was kind of nasty today, danky like that, that's your weather term. but it was cool. so we got a break from the heat. >> that was an upside, for sure. >> you have a list of weather

words. >> inversion, dank. >> quiz tonight at 11:15. >> we got some much-needed rain, but much of the country is dealing with the drought. >> dry conditions will likely mean higher food prices. fox 5's tom fitzgerald has a closer look. >> as the sun beats down, john moore is trying to keep up on watering his crops. >> we are starting to get dry now. >> john works at leesburg's temple home farm park. this drought is not only annoying livestock, but threatening both crops and a creek they rely on for water. >> trying to monitor how we do that. >> we are irrigating the corn fields and our pumps and fields. >> at white house tuesday, the secretary of agriculture warned food prices could be impacted by this lack of rain. >> 61% of the land mass is being characterized as being

impacted by this drought. >> this is a good example of what we are talking about. these leaves should be flat out and green. instead, starting to turn yellow and turn brown. it's not that they haven't had rain out here in northern virginia. they have. just not the steady constant rain that they need to keep these crops from looking like this. but other places have it much worse. in illinois, they are harvesting early to save what they can. >> they used to burn up july and august and it's an unusual year. >> in kansas, farmers are recycling water. >> we use all of the water that is available. >> and in arkansas, diesel crisis, which water trucks use are causing more pain. >> without the diesel, we wouldn't have a crop. >> back in leesburg, this field is supposed to be a corn maze by halloween. they are watering it, but no guarantee it's going to grow. >> even with the water, the irrigation doesn't do nearly as well as the natural rain fall does. >> which is why when john

looks out over these fields, he knows exactly what they need. >> we need a good steady soaking rain. >> instead, he says, we've had a summer of too many thunderstorms and not enough rain. in leesburg, tom fitzgerald, fox 5 news. still to come tonight from dropout to millionaire. a local student takes his poker calling all the way to the world series. >> and coming up on the news edge at 11:00, we have the latest on the movie massacre in colorado. plus, how local movie goers are reacting to the mass shooting. that's next.
